Timeshare Exchange Tips

One of the valuable benefits of timeshare ownership is the opportunity to exchange your timeshare for one in a different location. You may love your two weeks of sun and sand in south Florida ...

After all, what's not to love about lazing on the 100-foot private beach at the Geo Group at Berkshire Beach Club (left) in Deerfield Beach, Florida while you work on your tan. Or snorkeling and scuba diving amid the finned residents of the colorful underwater reef just offshore.

... but you may occasionally crave a change of pace. Perhaps this year, you'd like to try your hand at skiing or let the kids give snowboarding a try.

Big Sky Resort (right), just 18 miles from Yellowstone Park in Big Sky, Montana, offers some of the most exciting skiing in the world. Ride the tram to within 15 feet of Lone Peak's 11,166-foot summit for the downhill ride of a lifetime. With an annual snowfall of 400 inches, Big Sky guarantees prime ski conditions.

If you plan to exchange your timeshare, first decide on the what, where and when.

  • What? First consider the type of vacation experience you want to have. What do you and your family like to do? Do you prefer large, all-inclusive timeshare resorts or smaller, more intimate settings? What kind of activities and amenities are important to you?

  • Where? Think about locations that will provide the vacation experience you seek. Browse possible timeshare locations on Timeshare Giant (just click the post title). You'll find a map and list of countries/states that make searching for the perfect timeshare a snap. Looking for sun and sand? Click on Florida, Hawaii, Arizona or Puerto Rico. Prefer snow and ice? Click on Montana, Colorado, Idaho or Wyoming. On Timeshare Giant you can take a pictorial tour of each timeshare resort and check amenities to come up with a list of possible timeshare exchanges that meet your needs. Remember to consider less well known timeshare destinations. They offer the same vacation experience and amenities as the most popular resorts while providing greater date and accommodation choices.

  • When? It pays to book as far in advance as possible. If you want to exchange for a very popular timeshare resort, consider vacationing in the off-season. If your vacation time is somewhat flexible, it's helpful to provide the timeshare resort with several acceptable dates. If your dates are not flexible, try to select a backup choice or two in case your first choice timeshare is unavailable when you want to travel.
